A member asked:
What does elevated beta 1 and 2 globulin mean? i also have an m spike, high iga, high kappa light chain free and high kappa/lambda free ratio?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See details: The major question is why was this first testing ordered in the first place? The best answers you can receive is from the doctor who ordered the test. There are several issues that may cause a monoclonal spike with the most serious ones being multiple myeloma or Waldenstroms macroglobulinemia. You may want to consult a hematologist.

A member asked:
Is elevated kappa/lambda ratio on serum FLC test inherently monoclonal, even if neither kappa or lambda is elevated? Ratio high b/c lambda is low, not because of high kappa. SPEP/UPEP & IFE normal. High IgA, low IgG. Clean marrow biopsy. Polyclonal?

High IGA (7.09 g/l), and low IGG (3.05) and low IGM (.15). Beta1 globulin is high, beta2 and gamma are low. Protein Monoclonal band is detected type IGA at 8.5 g/l. FLC = high lambda at 33.4mg/l (normal kappa &ratio). Worried until I see hematologist?
Immunifixation identifies m spike as IGg Kappa polyclonal gamma globulin to consist mainly of IGg Kappa n Lamda with fair amounts of Iga means what?
Kappa/lambda FLC ratio high (2.75) w/ normal K(10.21mg/dl) & low L(3.68mg/dl). Hem-onc unsure if ratio implies K monoclonality since serum/urine IFE ok & neither chain is elevated. Could monoclonal K be suppressing L? IgA a bit high IgG &IgM a bitlow
What does it usually mean when your urine kappa/lambda light chain ratio is 9.48? Kappa uFLC 20.29 Lambda uFLC 2.14 with 3+ occult blood, uRBC went from 3-10 to 20-40/hpf in a month. beta globulins 46%?
I am 45 and male. Serum IgA at 472 mg/dl and an apparent polyclonal gammopathy IgA kappa/lambda typing appear increased. Serum free light chain: high kappa 35 mg/L, lambda normal 17.8 mg/L and a ratio of 1.97. Is this Myeloma? No M-protein found?
